A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores therein a program that causes a processor to execute inputting a driving capability value, a lumped-constant capacitance value, and an input capacitance value included in the lumped-constant capacitance value, respectively defined in a circuit model, and further inputting a first delay time of the circuit model, based on the driving capability value and the lumped-constant capacitance value; setting in the circuit model, the driving capability value, the lumped-constant capacitance value, and the input capacitance value; acquiring a second delay time of the circuit model, by providing to a simulator, the circuit model having values set therein; calculating a relative evaluation value for the first delay time and the second delay time; and storing to a storage apparatus and as a delay time correcting coefficient, the relative evaluation value correlated with the driving capability value, the lumped-constant capacitance value, and the input capacitance value.
